One person has died after a U.S. Coast Guard cutter collided with a fishing boat off Puerto Rico, officials say.
The 154-foot U.S. Coast Guard Cutter Winslow Griesser and the Desakata, a 23-foot commercial fishing vessel, crashed at around 2:20 p.m. Monday afternoon, about four nautical miles north of Dorado, Puerto Rico, the Coast Guard said.
The two fishermen were recovered by the crew aboard the Winslow Griesser, a Sentinel Class fast response cutter homeported in San Juan, following the collision. Samuel was taken to the Centro Medico hospital in San Juan for treatment. Carlos' remains will be transferred to Forensics Science Institute in San Juan, the Coast Guard said.
“We send our most heartfelt condolences to his family, friends and loved ones, and pray they find strength during this most difficult time," Díaz said.
